Jeremy Jones has been at the forefront of big-mountain backcountry snowboarding for over 15 years. His film trilogy, "Deeper," "Further," and his newest film "Higher" have brought his and other amazing riders/alpinists' skills to the public. This won't be released for another year, but we've got a lot to look forward to!

Next up is a sick clip from Mammut with some crazy ice climbing footage. I'm not going to spoil this with any other descriptions...

This next clip from Mountain Hardware captures the smooth fluidity of Sam Anthamatten on some beautiful lines up in Haines.

Last, but not least, our friends up at Glacier Ski Shop just put together this quick video of them tearing it up in the Mt. Baker backcountry on Wednesday. They're reporting 30" at about 5500'!!

Warning

Climbing, skiing and mountaineering are dangerous sports. When you undertake an outdoor, backcountry, or an alpine adventure without a guide, you assume total responsibility for your decisions and wellbeing. Conditions in the mountains are constantly changing, and no guidebook or computer web blog can take the place of solid training and experience. Though this site features descriptions of roads, trails, climbing routes, and other natural features, you cannot assume that because something is described here that it has not changed since last observed or that it will be safe for you or your party.
AAI assumes no responsibility or liability for your use of the information presented in this blog. With regard to all backcountry travel and climbing, you must make your own assessments and decisions, and you assume all risks in applying them.
